The answer is: Dagon

1 Samuel 5:2 - Dagon, worshiped by the Philistines, was central to their culture and often depicted with a fish-like body. This intriguing hybrid representation symbolizes fertility and abundance. The defeat of Dagon’s idol before the Ark of the Covenant (1 Samuel 5:4) demonstrates the supremacy of Israel's God over foreign deities.
